Inbound Meshtastic text addressed to BROADCAST_NUM (the default public
LongFast channel, or any channel slot) was filed into a per-sender 1:1 DM
thread, so public-channel messages polluted individual people's DM chats
and appeared as if sent directly to the user.
packet_to_inbound_frame now detects `to == BROADCAST_NUM` and emits a new
synthetic RESP_MESHTASTIC_CHANNEL_TEXT frame
([channel_idx][sender_prefix(6)][text]) that the listener files under the
channel thread (contact_id = u32::MAX - idx) while still attributing the
message to its real sender. Directed text (to == our node) still routes to
the DM thread — a regression test locks that split in.
send_channel_text now sets MeshPacket.channel (field 3) so archy actually
transmits on channel 0 (public) instead of ignoring the slot. Mesh.vue keeps
the synthetic "Meshtastic !xxxx" sender id when that is the best identity
available for a stock public-channel device.

- send_message now sends archy↔archy plain text as a native TEXT_MESSAGE_APP
DM (firmware PKC-encrypts E2E), not wrapped in the binary typed envelope
that silently broke archy↔archy LoRa delivery. Archy peers' Sent rows are
marked encrypted so the E2E pill shows; rich typed msgs still use the
typed-wire path.
- Add a software radio-reboot to recover a wedged/RX-deaf radio without
physical access (and for the Device-tab settings panel): driver reboot()
via AdminMessage reboot_seconds=97 (verified vs meshtastic/protobufs),
MeshCommand::RebootRadio, MeshService::reboot_radio, RPC mesh.reboot-radio.
- Handoff doc: docs/SESSION-1.8.0-OTA-PROGRESS.md "RESUME HERE" — RF link is
the proven blocker (radios not hearing each other); modem_preset mismatch
is the prime suspect; on-device Meshtastic-app check + fix plan documented.
